As the topic says. Also what are the steps to properly do this and is it something that can be done without taking the shafts apart?

 

Looks pretty complicated even with a Helms. I'm not going to do mine till after I get Omniman's DVD on how to build a 200 whp 1.6 which also has a segment on how to install a 4.7

 

For the inexperienced, either take it to a shop or have someone experienced help you through it.

 

not exactly an "easy" task but it can be done. We did mine on my GSR in my garage. It was worth it IMO though

 

If your experienced its not that bad, just follow the helms and take your time. However if you inexperienced take it in or let someone experienced work on it as kendall said.

There was at least one write-up in the archives.

 

how much would a shop charge if u dropped the tranny urself and stuff?

 

^^What everyone else said. I just did it while rebuilding my tranny for the first time. As long as you have some confidence, a Helms and a set of tools (and another method of transport) you might as well give it a shot.

Yes, you will need to tear down the countershaft to replace it with the new one. Good luck

$150-$300

Instructional DVD - $69
Helms - $ 50
Tools - $50
12 pack of Heini - $15

 

thats pretty cheap, 150 is nice..

 

I've installed it in two different transmissions and have also taken them out of the same transmissions. I plan on throwing in my new R soon. Its really not that bad if you know how to follow directions.
